    1.6 NA diesel

    before pulling injectors, be sure to pick up new heatsheilds. VW guys say they cannot be reused because they make a crush seal and will not "re-crush" check to see if you have bubbles in the clear fuel line out of the filter, this can be caused by air getting in from the water separater...

    Ball Joints replacement: what new parts do I need?

    moog balljoints come with seals and grease nipples. also the moog come with instructions lol. a 4wd ball joint kit (large c-clamp style with cups) will work with an impact.

    Major injector leak issue

    i used to produce biodiesel commercially. yes WVO will have the same effect on organic rubbers ect... as biodiesel will, just not as quickly. what you should be worried about it FFA content, sugars and protiens, and bonded water

    E40D - tach is acting funky and trans is shifting hard

    MLSC, just curious but why the emphisis on DO NOT? what will happen? was told that the dexron/mercon contain friction modifiers that cause the clutches to slip a little to provide a smoother shift. the type f doesnt have the modifiers and there will be better power delivery and firmer...

    Best way to flush the cooling system on a 7.3??

    cascade dishwasher soap.....run it for 3-5 days. you'll be suprised at the amount of crap that comes out. id recommend installing a bypass coolant filter w/ sca charge after you refill

    E40D - tach is acting funky and trans is shifting hard

    well its accurate above 1k so ***** footing it around 60kmh its will shift to od, which drops rpm down i think in my case to an inaccurate tach reading confusing my poor e40d. i have not seem od light flash though im certain she goes into limp. if it was standard, D feels like im trying to...

    E40D - tach is acting funky and trans is shifting hard

    i have the same issue, i noticed that when the tranny shifts to od (lock tc) the tach signal will drop below 1k telling the tranny to downshift. the higher rpm causes the tach sensor to be more accurate and the tranny will lock tc starting the cycle again. does this sound like your issue? i...
